Sourcing Reliable 2000mm Ball Screws for Your Next Project
When procurement teams start hunting for a 2000mm ball screw, it's usually because the machine in question demands serious travel distance and load capacity. Think large CNC mills, heavy-duty gantry systems, or custom automation lines where short-throw components just won't cut it.
We've supplied these to operations managers across the US, from Midwest machine shops to West Coast robotics integrators. A 2000mm ball screw isn't your everyday off-the-shelf part. It's engineered for precision over long strokes, with leads from 5mm to 20mm, and accuracy grades down to C3 for those tight-tolerance setups.
At YIDI Motion, we don't just grind and assemble. Our process starts with SF53 high-tensile steel, imported from certified mills, then precision grinding on Japanese-imported Okuma machines. Preload options eliminate backlash, and our nut designs handle dynamic loads up to 50kN without whipping.
Why does length matter here? At 2000mm, vibration damping becomes critical. Lesser suppliers skimp on nut flanges or end supports, leading to deflection under load. We've seen buyers return from cheap imports with uneven wear after six months. Our units? They're holding up in 24/7 paper converting lines three years running.
Procurement directors often ask about lead times. For stock 2000mm SFU2005 or SFU2010 models, we're shipping in 7-10 days. Customs? 20-25 days to major US ports via ocean, or air for urgent builds. And pricing? Factory-direct means you're not paying middleman markups. Expect $450-850 per unit, depending on pitch and grade—far below THK or NSK resellers.
But it's not just specs. Importers worry about consistency. One bad batch can sideline a $500k machine. That's why we grind in-house, test every screw on Heidenhain encoders, and back it with a 12-month warranty. No excuses.
Let's talk real scenarios. A Texas fabricator needed 2000mm for a plasma table retrofit. Stock from US distributors was backordered 12 weeks. We delivered in 18 days total, including DHL. They cut table travel time by 40% on large sheets. Or the Canadian packaging firm—upgraded from 1600mm acme screws to our ball screws, slashed energy draw and noise.
Search "2000mm ball screw" and you'll see listings galore, but dig deeper. Many are resellers with no factory traceability. We own the line: from bar stock to packing crate. ISO 9001 audited, CE marked for EU compliance if needed.
Custom? No issue. OEM for your brand, ODM with integrated ends, or even ball spline hybrids. We've done 2000mm with double nuts for vertical lifts, preloaded to 1% of lead accuracy.
Operations folks flag logistics headaches. At 2 meters, these ship as LCL unless bundled. We optimize palletizing—four per crate max, foam-wrapped, with machined ends protected. Duties? HS code 8483.40 handles ball screws at 2.5-5% US rate.
Experience tells us buyers overlook preload during spec review. For horizontal high-speed, go single nut with 2-5% preload. Vertical or reversing loads? Double nuts, or risk thermal expansion gaps opening up.
We're not hype merchants. In 2026 alone, exported 5km of ball screw to 50+ countries. Germany loves our C5 for automotive fixtures; US buyers hit us for CNC upgrades. Reliability? Our return rate sits under 0.5%.

This isn't boilerplate. It's what we've learned shipping thousands of meters worldwide since 2020. Your project deserves the same.
Trends Driving Demand for Long-Stroke Ball Screws
Machine builders are pushing boundaries. Gantry robots now span 3m+ axes, demanding 2000mm+ travel without flex. Additive manufacturing tables grow larger, automation for EV battery lines needs endurance.
Semiconductor fabs? They spec C3 accuracy over 2m to minimize stage errors. We've seen orders spike 30% year-over-year for precision grades.
Supply chain shifts play in. Post-2021 disruptions, US importers stockpile from China factories like ours—reliable, scalable, cost-effective vs. domestic premiums.
What Sets Our 2000mm Ball Screws Apart
- Material backbone: SF53 carbon steel, hardened to 58-62 HRC. Resists brinelling better than cheap 4140.
- Nut design: Flanged or cylindrical, with standard or extended wipers. Labyrinth seals standard for chip-heavy environments.
- Lead variety: 5,10,16,20mm pitches. Match your servo torque profile.
- Accuracy grades: C5 stock, C3/C1 custom. DIN 69051 compliant.
- Load ratings: Dynamic up to 52kN for SFU2010, static 90kN+.
One engineer noted: "Your wipers actually last. Competitor nuts gum up after 500 hours."

Note: Custom lengths to 3000mm available. Ends machined to DIN 69051 form E/F/G.
Applications Where 2000mm Ball Screws Excel
CNC routers for aerospace parts—long X-axis travel without position lag. Robotic welders spanning car frames. Vertical milling spindles with heavy quills.
Paper mills use them in cross-cutters; travel 2m at 2m/s. Solar panel assemblers for panel flippers.
Warning: For cleanrooms, specify stainless or coated. Dust? Our wipers handle it, but pair with linear guides.
Practical Installation Insights
Alignment is everything. Use dial indicators at both ends—tolerance under 0.02mm/100mm. Pre-tension supports to spec; fixed-floating setup prevents bind.
Lube with lithium grease NLGI 2. Run-in at 10% speed first. Common mistake: Over-tightening nuts—cracks the block.
We've shipped install kits: Dial gauge adapters, preload spacers. Saves headaches.
Global Shipping from Hebei Factory
Shijiazhuang to LA: 25 days ocean, $150/unit LCL. Air: 5-7 days, $400+. Palletized in plywood crates, 4x2000mm per.
FOB Tianjin. Incoterms flexible. US duties low; provide CO for preferences.

Buyer's Guide: Avoid Procurement Pitfalls
Check preload method—spring or balls? Verify root dia for your bearings. Ask for load curve charts, not just ratings.
Risk: Undersized nuts fail early. Demand 1m test reports.
Compare total cost: Our landed price beats US$1000+ retail.
